Title: A method of controlling the concentration of nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide in conjunction with the cleansing of emission gases
Inventor: LINDSKOG NILS
IPC: F01N11/00
Filed: 2001-03-23
Abstract: A method of controlling the concentration of nitrogen oxides, hydrocarbons, and carbon monoxide in waste gases. A first lambda value (lambda1) of the air-fuel mixture is set to less than 1. The gases pass through a first catalyst and then through a second catalyst. The CO-concentration of the gases in the first catalyst is sufficiently high to reduce NO<SUB>x </SUB>to N<SUB>2</SUB>so that the NOx concentration is reduced to a predetermined value. Oxygen (O<SUB>2</SUB>) is introduced between the first catalyst and the second catalyst to oxidize both CO and HC to CO<SUB>2 </SUB>and H<SUB>2</SUB>O, to reduce the CO-concentration to a predetermined value. A second lambda value (lambda2) is measured in the gases downstream of the second catalyst, and a valve for regulating the air-fuel ratio is controlled so that the second lambda value (lambda2) lies within a predetermined range whose lower limit is higher than 1.

Title: Method and apparatus for adjusting the distance between the poles of electrolysis cells
Inventor: SPARWALD VOLKER
IPC: C25B9/01
Filed: 1990-03-07
Abstract: Process and apparatus for regulating the interpolar distance to compensate for anode consumption in electrolysis cells. 
<??>As a result of the large differences in the position of the anode beam in the upper and lower position, the current path and the power loss become too large during lowering or raising and substantial variations in the magnetic field arise. The lowering of the anode necessary to remove the anode effect results in a rise in the bath level which may bring about flooding of the carbon anodes and leakage of the melt. 
<??>To avoid these disadvantages, at least one further anode beam (2) is movably arranged parallel to, and at a variable distance from, the first anode beam (1), the anode rods (3) being attached either to the first or the second anode beam and the anode beams (1, 2) each being connected to a drive running in the opposite direction. This makes it possible to adjust the individual anodes precisely to the to anode consumption at a particular time. 
<??>Regulation of the interpolar distance in electrolysis cells, in particular those used for aluminium melt electrolysis.

Title: Excitation pulse positioning method in a linear predictive speech coder
Inventor: MINDE TOR BJORN
IPC: G10L19/10
Filed: 1990-03-09
Abstract: A method for positioning excitation pulses for a linear predictive coder (LPC) operating according to the multi-pulse principle, i.e. a number of such pulses are positioned at specific time points and with specific amplitude. The time points and the amplitudes are determined from the predictive parameters (ak) and the predictive residue signal (dk), by correlation between a speech representative signal (y) and a composed synthesized signal (y/< ANd >). This can provide all possible time positions for the excitation pulses within a given frame interval. According to the proposed method, the possible time positions are divided into a number (nf) of phase positions and each phase- position is divided into a number of phases (f). These phases are vacant for the first excitation pulse. When this pulse has been positioned, the phase determined for this pulse is denied to the following excitation pulses until all pulses in a frame have been positioned.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP96/02068 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 23, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 23, 1998 PCT Filed May 14, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/38391 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 5, 1996The invention relates to an arrangement for cleaning a wool chamber in the manufacture of mineral wool. In the manufacture of mineral wool a binder is added to the stream of fibers which is deflected towards the wool chamber and the binder deposits itself in fine droplets in the fibers. The binder-laden fibers which touch against the walls and roof of the wool chamber adhere to them because the binder hardens upon contact with the hot surfaces. Gradually a hard deposit of binder and fibers is formed upon the walls. According to the invention cleaning of the walls is substantially simplified by means of making the walls and/or roof of a double walled construction, perforating the inner walls and applying a reduced pressure in the cavity between the walls holding a detachable lining against the inner walls by means of suction. When the lining has become coated with deposits of binder and fibers to a certain thickness production is halted and the reduced pressure is broken off whereon the detachable lining together with the deposits falls off and a new detachable lining is applied.

Patent AU-6276299-A (AU)
Title: Continuously variable transmission utilizing oscillating torque and one way drives
Inventor: LESTER WILLIAM T
IPC: F16F15/32
Filed: 1999-09-29
Abstract: A transmission utilizes oscillating torque to vary the mechanical power transmitted to a load. An arm assembly is rotatably coupled to a frame. At the ends of the arms are eccentric masses, rotatably coupled thereto. An input shaft rotates the masses about the ends of the arms. The rotating masses produce an oscillating torque that causes the arms to oscillate. The arms are coupled to an output assembly. The output assembly utilizes one way clutches, with one clutch reversed relative to the other clutch. The one way clutches convert the bidirectional rotation of the arms to unidirectional rotation for the load. The output speeds of the transmission are controlled by providing at least two side by side rotatable masses and varying the phase of one of the masses relative to the other mass. Varying the phase changes the center of gravity of the masses, thereby affecting the torque applied to the arms.

Title: Method and device for the reduction of the danger of getting caught in automatic doors
Inventor: HECKLER MARK
IPC: B66B13/26
Filed: 1990-11-26
Abstract: By means of this method and the arrangement, in the case of an automatic door, especially in the case of lifts with a controlled door drive which moves doors of a cabin door by means of a motor with a reduction gear and a mechanical drive, and moves doors of a shaft door via mechanical coupling elements, protection against being caught, responding up to the last few mm of a door closing movement with constant force levels, is provided. In this case, this is done by a control error dV being continuously compared during the door closing movement with a maximum permissible control error dVmax produced by a nominal value sensor (3.5) and, if this maximum control error is exceeded, the door is stopped with subsequent reversing. The response levels for an external disturbing force (3.9) are kept constant by a calibration trip computer (3.11) determining values for mass compensation (3.12) and values for friction compensation (3.13) during periodic calibration trips and supplying these values as a compensation value Vk to a second comparator (3.2). In consequence, the magnitude of an external disturbing force (3.9) is also known, or can be measured precisely, with a defined gain of the controller (3.8) and a known torque characteristic of the DC motor (2.1), which creates the precondition for safe protection against being caught.
